What’s the different between a Parcel Post and a Flat Rate Box for US Postal Service?

I’ve noticed that Parcel Post is less expensive than the Medium Flat Rate Box for US Postal Service. Besides the fact that the flat rate box (priority mail) will ship faster, is there any difference? Does US Postal Service allow me to mail a pair of shoes in its original shoebox without having to put it into another box? Thanks!

    Parcel Post is less expensive because the package is shipped by truck instead of air. You can mail a pair of shoe in the original shoebox as long as the package is sturdy enough to go through the automated package handling. You will still need to take it to the post office to be weighed and have postage affixed to the item.
